Being one of the Capital Millennium Projects initiated by the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Chinese Cuisine Training Institute (CCTI) provides both full-time and part-time courses to beginners and practicing chefs in the industry who wish to obtain or upgrade their qualifications in Chinese Cuisine.

Located at the Pokfulam Training Centre Complex, the CCTI endeavours to:

• Create a systematic training system in Chinese Cuisine from the elementary to the master chef level
• Elevate the professional status of Chinese Chefs as well as the quality and hygiene standard of Chinese Cuisine in Hong Kong
• Establish Hong Kong as a regional training and accreditation centre in Chinese Cuisine by introducing trade testing to the industry

To capitalise on the world's fascination in Chinese culture, the CCTI offers culinary Interest Courses in the demonstration kitchen. It also features a training restaurant serving the eight provincial cuisines and a souvenir shop selling culinary related gift items to enhance the Institute's tourist appeal.
